I don't know what to do to help my guinea pig

[paolaaaa_03]

so I had bought my 15 year old sister a guinea pig like around a year ago and she's always taken very good care of him he's always had a good diet she always makes sure to have him in a clean environment but today she took him out of his cage so he could roam around her bedroom and we noticed that he wasn't moving his back legs, he was basically dragging himself on the floor so I did a little bit of research and it said that maybe its a lack of calcium, so I gave him some grass to see if he feels better and he started walking again. but he's still acting a little off he seems to be falling side to side like if he's unbalanced and he just lays there and seems weak, he's also peeing way more then usual we don't know what to do. HELP PLEASE.

I'm so sorry for your sisters piggie! I hope he feels better. He could've had a stroke or just needs more vitamin C. But bring him to the vets asap
